What dumpster sizes do you offer?
Our roll-off dumpsters come in 10, 15 and 20 yards. All three are 16 feet long and 7.5 feet wide, and they are 3, 4 and 5 feet tall. See sizes and prices.
How much does it cost to rent a dumpster?
Prices depend on the size and how long you keep it. A 10 yard starts at $250, a 15 yard at $300 and a 20 yard at $350 for a single day. Each price includes a set weight (1.5, 2 or 2.5 tons). Extra days are $25 a day and extra weight is $100 a ton.
How long can I keep the dumpster?
As long as your project needs: rental periods range from one day to a month or a year.
What can’t go in the dumpster?
Paint, oil products, flammable material, liquids of any kind, concrete, rocks, bricks, masonry, dirt, batteries, hazardous materials, tires, stumps, roofing materials and asbestos.
Are there any additional fees?
Fees apply for excess weight, for moving the dumpster without our permission, and for tires, appliances with Freon, hazardous material or liquids mixed in with the trash. Please don’t fill a dumpster with concrete, rock or dirt: we don’t operate dump trucks, and the maximum weight in a dumpster is 4 tons. A 20 yard dumpster full of dirt is likely to weigh more than 8 tons.
Can I place the dumpster on my street?
Placement rules vary by location, so check with us or your local authorities about where the dumpster can go. Homeowners associations may have limits too, so check with your HOA.
How far in advance should I order?
The more notice, the better. Next-day delivery is ideal, but three days’ notice is customary for any local hauling company.
How do I cancel an order?
We need 24 hours’ notice. Without it, there is a $100 cancellation fee.
What’s included in the rental?
Dropping off the dumpster, using it according to our guidelines, picking it up, and disposing of what’s inside.
